Dan McDonough 560 Posted November 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 I got you all now. My lurchers don't make a sound on track. Not even the whippet x Jagdterrier male. I do have a stag x july hound that will open some but only when he's looking at a coyote on the run and only if he's having to give it everything he's got and he's still not catching. Once in a while there'll be a coyote around here that has some real speed and just can't be caught. As far as making a lurcher that trees, I would prefer that it be silent on track. I'm going to sell off all of my lurchers that don't tree shortly. The exception will be my first stag x BC pair. Those I'll be keeping. I just get on to well with those two and they are basically part of the family now. The other day I picked up a mtn.cur x border collie female and if she works out, I'm going to make another batch of lurchers and see if I can get something that trees well. I wish I could send a litter of dead game squirrel dogs over there for you folks to play with. I think you guys would be hooked! 1 Quote Link to post
